Χριστός Ανέστη!!!
Εύχομαι σε όλο τον κόσμο να ζήσει μια εσωτερική Ανάσταση, στο μυαλό την καρδιά και όλο το σώμα θα ακολουθήσει... Μόνο έτσι μπορούμε να κάνουμε πραγματικότητα την Ανάσταση γύρω μας!
Με αυτές τις σκέψεις στο μυαλό θα αρχίσω από σήμερα μια νέα σειρά ανρτήσεων... επιθετική αισιοδοξία, ελπίδα στην πράξη, αποφασιστηκότητα για μια καινούρια ζωή είναι η φιλοσοφία μας.
Ο Jack Canfield, γνωστός για την έμπνευση και τη σοφία που κουβαλούν οι ομιλίες του, παραθέτει έναν εξαιρετικά εύστοχο οδηγό για να πάρουμε τη ζωή στα χέρια μας με στόχο να την αλλάξουμε!!!
ΠΙΣΤΗ + ΑΠΟΦΑΣΙΣΤΗΚΟΤΗΤΑ + ΠΡΑΞΗ = ΑΛΛΑΓΗ
1. Take No Less than 100% Responsibility for Your Life
One of the greatest myths that is pervasive in our culture today is
that you are entitled to a great life and that somehow, somewhere,
someone is responsible for filling our lives with continual happiness,
exciting career options, nurturing family time and blissful personal
relationships simply because we exist. But the real truth is that there
is only one person responsible for the quality of the life you live.
That person is you.
Everything about you is a result of your doing or not doing. Income.
Debt. Relationships. Health. Fitness level. Attitudes and behaviors.
That person who reflects back at you in the mirror is the chief
conductor in your life. Say hello!
I think everyone knows this in their hearts, but the mind can play
games, tricking plenty of people into thinking external factors are the
source of failure, disappointment, and unhappiness. But the truth of the
matter is that external factors don't determine how you live. You are
in complete control of the quality of your life.
Successful people take full responsibility for the thoughts they
think, the images they visualize, and the actions they take. They don't
waste their time and energy blaming and complaining. They evaluate their
experiences and decide if they need to change them or not. They face
the uncomfortable and take risks in order to create the life they want
to live.
2. Be Clear Why You're Here
I believe each of us is born with a life purpose. Identifying,
acknowledging and honoring this purpose is perhaps the most important
action successful people take. They take the time to understand what
they're here to do, and then they pursue that with passion and
enthusiasm.
If you don't know what you're supposed to be doing, then just tune in
to the signals around you. Looking toward others for help and guidance
is helpful, but don't forget to stay tuned in to yourself—your behavior,
attitude, likes and dislikes, and life experiences. Identify what's
working and what isn't. If you need to, write it all down. You might be
surprised by what you discover.
3. Decide What You Want
It sounds so simple, but here's the problem: I see plenty of people
who are overly-busy yet who feel unsatisfied and unfulfilled. They are
physically tired, spiritually drained, and far from where they'd like to
be—as if they've been running on a treadmill going nowhere fast. Why?
Because they haven't clearly mapped out what they want and then taken
the steps to get there. Rather than identifying specific goals,
milestones, and dreams (and I'm talking BIG dreams and goals here), they
go through the motions day in and day out tackling unimportant tasks.
They end up...you guessed it...going in circles and wasting lots of
energy. In the meanwhile, they grow increasingly uninspired and out of
touch with their authentic selves. This, of course, sets anyone up to
living a life out of balance.
One of the main reasons why most people don't get what they want is
they haven't decided what they want. They haven't defined their desires
in clear and compelling detail. What does success look like to you? Not
everybody's definition of success is the same, nor should it be.
Don't let your inner devil's advocate (or that incessant but
unimportant To Do list) inhibit you from dreaming big. As soon as you
commit to a big dream and really go after it, your subconscious creative
mind will come up with big ideas to make it happen. You'll start
attracting the people, resources, and opportunities you need into your
life to make your dream come true. Big dreams not only inspire you, but
they also compel others to want to play big, too.

attracting the people, resources, and opportunities you need into your
life to make your dream come true. Big dreams not only inspire you, but
they also compel others to want to play big, too.
4. Believe It Is Possible
Scientists used to believe that humans responded to information
flowing into the brain from the outside world. But today, they're
learning that instead we respond to what the brain, based on previous
experience, expects to happen next. In fact, the mind is such a powerful
instrument; it can deliver literally everything you want. But you have
to believe that what you want is possible.
As you commit to believing in yourself, also make a commitment to
toning down the complaint department. Look at what you are complaining
about. I'm fat. I'm tired. I can't get out of debt. I won't ever get a
better job. I can't stand the relationship I have with my father. I'll
never find a soulmate in life. Really examine your complaints. More than
likely you can do something about them. They are not about other
people, other things, or other events. They are about YOU.
5. Believe in Yourself
If you are going to be successful in creating the life of your
dreams, you have to believe that you are capable of making it happen.
Whether you call it self-esteem, self-confidence or self-assurance, it
is a deep-seated belief that you have what it takes; the abilities,
inner resources, talents and skills to create your desired results.
Have unwavering faith in yourself, for good and bad. Make the
decision to believe that you create all your experiences. You will
experience successes thanks to you, and you will experience pain,
struggle, and strife thanks to you. Sounds a little strange, but
accepting this level of responsibility is uniquely empowering. It means
you can do, change, and be anything. Stumbling blocks become just
that—little hills to hop over.
6. Become an Inverse Paranoid
This one is straightforward: Imagine how much easier it would be to
succeed in life if you were constantly expecting the world to support
you and bring you opportunity. Successful people do just that.
7. Unleash the Power of Goal Setting
Experts on the science of success know the brain is a goal-seeking
organism. Whatever goal you give to your subconscious mind, it will work
day and night to achieve. To engage you subconscious mind, a goal has
to be measurable. When there aren't any criteria for measurement, it is
simply something you want, a wish, a preference, or a good idea.
Sometimes we need to make just one initial goal to get started, and
that's okay. At least it comes with a few actions to achieve. A first
step simply can be making an immediate change in a single area in your
life. Are you unhappy about something that is happening right now? Make
requests that will make it more desirable to you, or take the steps to
change it yourself. Making a change might be uncomfortable and
overwhelming for you. It might mean you have to put in more time, money,
and effort. It might mean that someone gets upset about it, or makes
you feel bad about your decision. It might be difficult to change or
leave a situation, but staying put is your choice so why continue to
complain? You can either do something about it or not. It is your choice
and you have responsibility for your choices.
Bear in mind that you have to be willing to change your behavior if
you want a different outcome. You have to be willing to take the risks
necessary to get what you want. If you've already taken an initial step
in the right direction, now's the time to plan more steps to keep moving
you forward faster.
Isn't it a great relief to know that you can make your life what you
want it to be? Isn't it wonderful that your successes do not depend on
someone else?
So if you need just one thing to do different today than you did
yesterday, make it this: Commit to taking 100% responsibility for every
aspect of your life. Decide to make changes, one step at a time. Once
you start the process you'll discover it is much easier to get what you
want by taking control of your thoughts, your visualizations, and your
actions!
